The Tennessee Titans added some depth to their secondary Tuesday with the addition of safety Da’Norris Searcy.

Paul Kuharsky of ESPN.com reported that the deal was done, per a Titans source.

Searcy spent the first four seasons of his NFL career as a member of the Buffalo Bills and racked up five interceptions. He also only missed two of a possible 64 games during that span and is 26 years old with plenty of productive seasons still theoretically ahead of him.

If nothing else, the Titans added a durable option on the back end of the defense who will likely be healthy and able to take the field on a consistent basis.

Tennessee was 15th in the league against the pass and 31st against the run last year and needs to bolster its defense if it hopes to compete with quarterback Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC South in 2015 and beyond. Adding someone like Searcy, who can help in the secondary and come up and make plays in the running game, will certainly help the Titans’ cause.
